| Message | Article 1: If we control all the power stations we can give cheaper energy to the proletariat. Article 2: We have to control the normal mail (postcards, letters...) because it has to be free but if people wants to send packets or other big things faster they can send it by a private company. Article 3: If we control the TOC we can give free (or very cheap) transport and reduce the utilisation of the cars, motorbikes... for big routes. |

| Message | I'm all for smoothening the lines of transportation and communication. Pirvate companies, contrary to the government, have other agendas and interests besides making sure the workers can communicate and travel. Also, communication and competition issues make them less efficient than if those services were to be regulated and organized by the State. |
